This work is part of my series called "Future Fossils". It explores various inter-connected and tangential issues relating to environmental sustainability. Although humans have inhabited the earth for millennia it is only in the past few decades, post industrialization, that human activity is completely altering the earth's geology. The foremost contributor to this change is the unending production of plastic in various forms. Plastics travel for thousands of miles and continue to live on for decades sinking into oceans and deep into the earth's surface. Scientists predict that in the future archaeologists will find remnants of today's landfills also known as "technofossils". Once underground, plastics have a high probability of being fossilized to stand testament to our hyper-consumerist generation. Primary Materials: Styrofoam (sealed with lacquer), paper

Romicon Revola a.k.a Romi is a contemporary visual artist based in Bangalore. Trained as a sculptor, she has experimented with a variety of media. Her work encompasses monumental public sculpture, installation, painting, and video. "My work often explores that mysterious, elusive space that lies between the utopian and the dystopian. While suggesting both an intimacy and a monumentality, my approach reflects the paradigm “the personal is the global". I believe that each one of us is a microcosm of the universe," says the artist. Romi has appropriated the stainless steel material, often considered either industrial or masculine, to weave narratives engaging with feminine musings. In her recent body of work Cosmic Bloom: Iconography for a Reimagined World Order she seeks to explore new archetypes or perhaps even revive forgotten mythologies as a response to the several inter-connected and tangential issues surrounding sustainability, consumption, geology and ecology. She references subtle dichotomies while alluding to the power of empathy, resilience and nurture. From 2005 onwards Romicon Revola has installed public sculptures and has held exhibitions in Bangalore, Chennai, Kolkatta, Kochi, Ahmedabad and Mumbai. Her work is in various private collections in India and abroad. She is involved in several art initiatives and community art programs.
